[Dxspider-support] Curiosities about network topology

[Keith Maton]

Yeah, we have too many nodes and the nodes we have, have many more partners than they need.  I’m as guilty of this as the next person.

If someone asks me to be a partner node, I find it very difficult to turn them down, in fact, I don’t think I’ve rejected anyones request.  If they’ve gone out of their way to ask me, they must have a reason for it so I think it’d be rude to reject it.  I do now insist that they connect to me rather than vice versa.

On the positive side it means we have a very robust system and huge chunks of it could fail but we’d all still get our spots, and we’d still get them quickly.
